  • The Operator's Story Appendix
    Railway and Transport Strategy Centre The Operator’s Story Appendix: London’s Story © World Bank / Imperial College London Property of the World Bank and the RTSC at Imperial College London Community of Metros CoMET The Operator’s Story: Notes from London Case Study Interviews February 2017 Purpose The purpose of this document is to provide a permanent record for the researchers of what was said by people interviewed for ‘The Operator’s Story’ in London. These notes are based upon 14 meetings between 6th-9th October 2015, plus one further meeting in January 2016. This document will ultimately form an appendix to the final report for ‘The Operator’s Story’ piece Although the findings have been arranged and structured by Imperial College London, they remain a collation of thoughts and statements from interviewees, and continue to be the opinions of those interviewed, rather than of Imperial College London. Prefacing the notes is a summary of Imperial College’s key findings based on comments made, which will be drawn out further in the final report for ‘The Operator’s Story’. Method This content is a collation in note form of views expressed in the interviews that were conducted for this study. Comments are not attributed to specific individuals, as agreed with the interviewees and TfL. However, in some cases it is noted that a comment was made by an individual external not employed by TfL (‘external commentator’), where it is appropriate to draw a distinction between views expressed by TfL themselves and those expressed about their organisation.

  • London Assembly out of Frustration with the Lack of Response
    Appendix 1 Environment Committee - Thursday, 16 March 2017 Transcript of Item 5 – Tube Noise Leonie Cooper AM (Chair): That brings us rather rapidly to our first item on Tube noise. This has been the subject of much correspondence from those afflicted with the problem and we are very fortunate to have a number of people with us this morning who are going to be able to speak to how it has been impacting on them and their neighbourhood and their neighbours. We are also very fortunate to have some guests from Transport for London (TfL) who are, hopefully, going to be able to explain some of the ins and outs of the solutions and how quickly they may or may not be applied. Just to introduce our guests, we have Richard Collins. You are very welcome. He is from the Barbican Association, which has a working group on Underground issues. We have Ian Kitson, who is a resident in Marylebone. You are very welcome as well. We have Liz Lawson, who is from the Archway Tube Noise Action Group. We have Razana Yoosuf, who is a resident in Mornington Crescent. We also have with us from TfL Helen Woolston [Sustainability Co-ordinator, London Underground] and Duncan Weir [Head of Operational Upgrades & Asset Development, London Underground]. You are all very welcome and we are very grateful for you joining us today to discuss the impacts, which we are going to start with now. I have probably asked our guests who are affected by Tube noise to start by doing something almost impossible.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract of Thesis This thesis examines the birth of secondary education for Jews in England, focusing on the middle classes as defined in the text. This study explores various types of secondary education that are categorised under one of two generic terms - Jewish secondary education or secondary education for Jews. The former describes institutions, offered by individual Jews, which provided a blend of religious and/or secular education. The latter focuses on non-Jewish schools which accepted Jews (and some which did not but were, nevertheless, attended by Jews). Whilst this work emphasises London and its environs, other areas of Jewish residence, both major and minor, are also investigated.

    Editorial Our annual business meeting was held at the Memorial Hall on Wednesday, nth May, 1910. The attendance was unusually meagre. The officers were re-elected, and routine business attended to. Mr. A. Peel gave an account of the work in which he is engaged on the Morrice MSS. ; and it was reported that the treasurer (who was absent through indisposition) had made sub­ stantial progress with his important work on the Indulgence documents. The secretary was instructed to communicate with the secretary of the Congregational Union as to the possibility of an historical volume of the Congregational Lecture, in which several capable persons should collaborate, to signalize the approaching 250th anniversary of the Act of Uniformity. "' "' We give a hearty welcome to No. 3 of the " Congregational Worthies" series, issued by the Congregational Union. This is a concise but very informing life of Robert Browne, Pioneer of Modern Co11grqfalio11alism, by the Rev. Dr. Powicke. So much additional light has been shed on Browne's life and character by the researches of Messrs. Burrage and Cater that almost everything printed on the subject before 1904 may now be regarded as obsolete. Dr. Powicke has made good use of the fruits of recent research, and has studied at first hand works of Browne's that have never been reprinted. He has quietly ignored several alleged facts, which rest only on doubtful tradition, and has used his own judgement on some points on which his views will not command universal assent. In particular, he rejects Dr. Dexter's opinion of Browne's mental disorder, and also the generally received tradition that he died in prison.
